                      THE MACERICH COMPANY (THE COMPANY)
           NOTES TO CONDENSED AND CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                           (DOLLARS IN THOUSANDS)


1.   INTERIM FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION: 

     The accompanying consolidated financial statements of The Macerich Company
     have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting
     principles ("GAAP") for interim financial information and with the
     instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X.  Accordingly,
     they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by
     generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements
     and have not been audited by independent public accountants.
     
     The unaudited interim financial statements should be read in conjunction
     with the audited financial statements and related notes included in the
     Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 1997. 
     In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal
     recurring adjustments) necessary for a fair presentation of the financial
     statements for the interim periods have been made.  The results for interim
     periods are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for a
     full year.    The accompanying consolidated balance sheet as of December
     31, 1997 has been derived from the audited financial statements, but does
     not include all disclosure required by GAAP.

     Certain reclassifications have been made in the 1997 financial statements
     to conform to the 1998 financial statement presentation.
     
     In March, 1998, the FASB, through its Emerging Issues Task Force ("EITF"),
     concluded based on EITF 97-11, "Accounting for Internal Costs Relating to
     Real Estate Property Acquisitions", that all internal costs to source,
     analyze and close acquisitions should be expensed as incurred.  The Company
     has historically capitalized these costs, in accordance with GAAP.  The
     Company has adopted the FASB's interpretation effective March 19, 1998, 
     and expects the impact to be an approximate $0.06 per share reduction of
     net income per share in 1998.
     
     In May, 1998, the FASB, through the EITF, modified the timing on
     recognition of revenue for percentage rent received from tenants in EITF
     98-9, "Accounting for Contingent Rent in Interim Financial Periods".  The
     Company applied this accounting change as of April 1, 1998.  Although the
     Company believes this accounting change will have no material impact on the
     annual percentage rent recognized, the accounting change  had the effect of
     deferring $1,792 of percentage rent that would have been recognized for the
     three months ended June 30, 1998 using the previous GAAP accounting method
     for percentage rent recognition.  As a result of this accounting change,
     the Company expects a portion of percentage rent that previously would be
     recognized in the second and third quarters to be recognized in the fourth
     quarter.
     
     EARNINGS PER SHARE ("EPS")
     
     The computation of basic earnings per share is based on net income and the
     weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the three and six
     months ending June 30, 1998 and 1997.  The diluted earnings per share give
     effect to the outstanding restricted stock and common stock options
     calculated using the treasury stock method.  The convertible debentures and
     convertible preferred stock would be anti-dilutive to the calculation of
     diluted EPS and therefore are not included.  The OP units not held by the
     Company have been included in the diluted EPS calculation since they are
     convertible on a one-for-one basis.  The following table reconciles the
     basic and diluted earnings per share calculations:

     The Macerich Company (the "Company") was incorporated under the General
     Corporation Law of Maryland on September 9, 1993 and commenced operations
     effective with the completion of its initial public offering ("IPO") on
     March 16, 1994.  The Company was formed to continue the business of the
     Macerich Group, which since 1972 has focused on the acquisition, ownership,
     redevelopment, management and leasing of regional shopping centers located
     throughout the United States.  In 1994, the Company became the sole general
     partner of The Macerich Partnership L.P., (the "Operating Partnership"). 
     The Operating Partnership owns or has an ownership interest in forty-one
     regional shopping centers and five community shopping centers, including a
     portfolio of twelve regional malls that was acquired on February 27, 1998. 
     Collectively these properties and interests are referred to as the
     "Centers".  The Company conducts all of its operations through the
     Operating Partnership and other wholly owned subsidiaries, and the
     Company's three Management Companies, Macerich Property Management Company,
     Macerich Management Company, and Macerich Manhattan Management Company,
     collectively referred to as "the Management Companies".
     
     The Company is a real estate investment trust under the Internal Revenue
     Code of 1986, as amended and owned approximately 77% of The Operating
     Partnership as of June 30, 1998. The limited partnership interest not owned
     by the Company is reflected in these financial statements as Minority
     Interest.

     The following are the Company's investments in various real estate joint
     ventures which own retail shopping centers. The Operating Partnership's

3.   INVESTMENTS IN UNCONSOLIDATED JOINT VENTURES AND THE MANAGEMENT COMPANIES
     -- CONTINUED:
     
     On February 27, 1998, the Company, through a 50/50 joint venture, SDG
     Macerich Properties, L.P., acquired a portfolio of twelve regional malls. 
     The total purchase price was $974,500 including the assumption of $485,000
     in debt.  The Company funded its 50% of the remaining purchase price by
     issuing 3,627,131 shares of Series A convertible preferred stock for gross
     proceeds totaling $100,000 in a private placement.  The Company also issued
     2,879,134 shares of common stock ($79,600 of total proceeds) under the
     Company's shelf registration statement.  The balance of the purchase price
     was funded from the Company's line of credit.  Each of the joint venture
     partners have assumed leasing and management responsibilities for six of
     the regional malls.  
     
     On June 16, 1998, 40% of the Village at Corte Madera's partnership
     interest was acquired by the Company.  On July 24, 1998, the remaining 60%
     of the partnership interests were acquired.  The total purchase price was
     approximately $120,000 which included the assumption of $40,000 of debt.
     For periods after July 24, 1998, this investment will be accounted for as a
     consolidated subsidiary.
     
     The results of these joint ventures are included for the period subsequent
     to their respective dates of acquisition.
     
     In December 1997, North Valley Plaza, which was 50% owned by the Company,
     was sold.

            NOTES TO CONDENSED AND CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

6.    MORTGAGE NOTES PAYABLE, CONTINUED:

            The Notes require the Company to deposit all cash flow from the 
            property operations with a trustee to meet its obligations under 
            the Notes.  Cash in excess of the required amount, as defined, is 
            released.  Included in cash and cash equivalents is $750 of 
            restricted cash deposited with the trustee at June 30, 1998 and 
            at December 31, 1997.
     
      (d)   This represents the monthly payment of principal and interest.
          
      (e)   This amount represents the monthly payment of principal and 
            interest. In addition, contingent interest, as defined in the 
            loan agreement, may be due to the extent of 35% of the amount by 
            which the property's gross receipts (as defined in the loan 
            agreement) exceed a base amount specified therein.  Contingent 
            interest expense recognized by the Company was $0 for the six 
            months ended June 30, 1998 and 1997, respectively.
          
      (f)   This loan bears interest at LIBOR plus 0.45%.  There is an 
            interest rate protection agreement in place on the first $10,200 
            of this debt with a LIBOR ceiling of 5.88% through maturity with 
            the remaining principal having an interest rate cap with a LIBOR 
            ceiling at 7.7%.
          
      (g)   At June 30, 1998, this loan had an interest rate of LIBOR plus 
            1.25% which totaled 6.906%.  In July 1998, this loan was reduced 
            by $1,000 and converted into a fixed rate loan bearing interest 
            at 6.61% maturing in 2008.
               
      (h)   Included in cash and cash equivalents is $3,031 and $3,030 at 
            June 30, 1998 and December 31, 1997, respectively, of cash 
            restricted under the terms of this loan agreement. 

      (i)   This note was assumed at acquisition.  At the time of acquisition 
            in June 1998, this debt was recorded at fair market value and the 
            premium is being amortized over the life of the loan using the 
            effective interest method.  The monthly debt service payment is 
            $348 per month and is calculated based on a 12.5% interest rate. 
            At June 30, 1998, the unamortized premium was $6,783.
          
      (j)   This loan was refinanced with a new loan of $69,000 on August 7, 
            1998. The Company incurred a loss on early extinguishment of the 
            old debt of $2,300.  The new loan is a fixed rate 10 year loan 
            bearing interest at 6.52% and maturing in August, 2008.


      Certain mortgage loan agreements contain a prepayment penalty provision 
      for the early extinguishment of the debt.
     
      Total interest expense capitalized for the three months ending June 30, 
      1998 and 1997 was $810 and $205, respectively; and $1,471 and 
      $299 for the six months ended June 30, 1998 and 1997, 
      respectively.
          
      The market value of notes payable at June 30, 1998 and December 31, 
      1997 is estimated to be approximately $1,077,300 and $1,013,000, 
      respectively, based on current interest rates for comparable 
      loans.

            During 1997, the Company issued and sold $161,400 of convertible 
            subordinated debentures (the "Debentures") due 2002.  The 
            Debentures, which were sold at par, bear interest at 7.25% 
            annually (payable semi-annually) and are convertible at any time, 
            on or after 60 days, from the date of issue at a conversion price

            and are callable by the Company after June 15, 2002 at par plus 
            accrued interest.

      9.    RELATED-PARTY TRANSACTIONS:

            The Company engaged The Management Companies to manage the 
            operations of its properties and certain unconsolidated joint

            months ending June 30, 1998 and 1997 of $1,250 and $1,019, 
            respectively, were paid to the Management Companies by the 
            Company.
     
            Certain mortgage notes were held by outside partners of the 
            individual Macerich Group partnerships.  Interest expense in 
            connection with these notes was $2,348 and $2,503 for the three

            December 31, 1997, respectively.
     
      10.   COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES:

            Certain partnerships have entered into noncancellable operating 
            ground leases.  The leases expire at various times through 2070, 
            subject in some cases to options to extend the terms of the 
            lease.  Certain leases provide for contingent rent payments based 
            on a percent of base rent income, as defined.  Ground rent 
            expenses were $427 and $171 for the three months ended June 30, 
            1998 and 1997, respectively; and $644 and $342 for the six months 
            ended June 30, 1998 and 1997, respectively. There were no 
            contingent rents in either period.

      10.   COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES, CONTINUED:

            Perchloroethylene (PCE) has been detected in soil and groundwater 
            in the vicinity of a dry cleaning establishment at North Valley 
            Plaza, which was sold on December 18, 1997.  The California 
            Department of Toxic Substance Control (DTSC) advised the Company 
            in 1995 that very low levels of Dichlorethylene (1,2,DCE), a 
            degradation byproduct of PCE, have been detected in a water well 
            located 1/4 mile west from the dry cleaners, and that the dry 
            cleaning facility may have contributed to the introduction of 1,2 
            DCE into the water well.  According to DTSC, the maximum 
            contaminant level (MCL) for 1,2DCE which is permitted in drinking 
            water is 6 parts per billion (ppb).  The 1,2DCE which was 
            detected in the water well at 1.2 ppb, is below the MCL.  The 
            Company has retained an environmental consultant and has 
            initiated extensive testing of the site.  Remediation began in 
            October 1997.  The joint venture that owned the property agreed 
            (between itself and the buyer) that it would be responsible for 
            continuing to pursue the investigation and remediation of 
            impacted soil and groundwater resulting from releases of PCE from 
            the shopping center's former dry cleaner.  $65 and $11 has 
            already been incurred by the Company for remediation, and 
            professional and legal fees for the period ending June 30, 1998 
            and 1997, respectively.  An additional $496 and $561 is accrued 
            as a liability by the Company as of June 30, 1998 and December 
            31, 1997, respectively. The Company has initiated cost recovery 
            actions and intends to continue to look to responsible parties 
            for recovery.

            Low levels of toluene, a petroleum constituent, was detected in 
            one of three groundwater dewatering system holding tanks  at  
            Queens  Center.  No government agency has requested any action to 
            address this matter. Although the Company believes that no 
            remediation will be required, the Company established a $150 
            reserve in 1996 to cover professional fees and testing costs, 
            which was reduced by costs incurred of $1 and $5 for the six 
            months ending June 30, 1998 and 1997, respectively.  The Company 
            intends to look to the responsible parties and insurers if 
            remediation is required.

            The Company acquired Fresno Fashion Fair in December 1996.  
            Asbestos has been detected in structural fireproofing throughout 
            much of the Mall. Testing data conducted by professional 
            environmental consulting firms indicates that the fireproofing is 
            largely inaccessible to building occupants and is well adhered to 
            the structural members.  Additionally, airborne concentrations of 
            asbestos were well within OSHA's permissible exposure limit (PEL) 
            of .1 fcc.  The accounting for this acquisition includes a 
            reserve of $3.3 million to cover future removal of this asbestos, 
            as necessary.  The Company incurred $134 and $12 for the six 
            months ending June 30, 1998 and 1997, respectively.
     
      11.   PRO FORMA INFORMATION:

            On February 27, 1998, the Company, through a 50/50 joint venture, 
            SDG Macerich Properties, L.P., acquired a portfolio of twelve 
            regional malls. Additionally, on June 19, 1998, the Company 
            acquired South Plains Mall in Lubbock, Texas for approximately 
            $115,700.  The purchase price consisted of $29,400 of debt, at 
            market value, and $86,300 of cash.
     
            On a pro forma basis, reflecting these acquisitions as if they 
            had occurred on January 1, 1998 and 1997, the Company would have 
            reflected net income -- available to common stockholders of $15,960
            and $14,553 for the six months ended June 30, 1998 and 1997, 
            respectively.  Net income -- available to common shareholders on a
            basic and diluted per share basis would be $0.49 and $0.50, for 
            the six months ended June 30, 1998 respectively; and $0.56 and 
            $0.46, for the six months ended June 30, 1997, respectively.

            A cumulative convertible preferred stock for proceeds totaling 
            $100,000 in a private placement.  The preferred stock can be 
            converted on a one for one basis into common stock and will pay a 
            dividend equal to the greater of $0.46 per share per quarter or

            On June 17, 1998, the Company issued 5,487,471 shares of Series B 
            cumulative convertible preferred stock for proceeds totaling 
            $150,000 in a direct private placement.  The preferred stock can 
            be converted on a one for one basis into common stock and will 
            pay a dividend equal to the greater of $0.46 per share per 
            quarter or the quarterly dividend then payable on a share of 
            common stock.

      13.   SUBSEQUENT EVENTS:

            On August 5, 1998, a dividend\distribution of $0.46 per share was 
            declared for common stockholders and OP unit holders of record on 
            August 14, 1998. In addition, the Company declared a dividend of 
            $0.46 on the Company's Series A cumulative convertible preferred 
            stock and a dividend of $0.071 on the Company's Series B 
            cumulative convertible preferred stock.  The Company issued 
            5,487,470 shares of Series B cumulative convertible preferred 
            stock on June 17, 1998, and the dividend declared represents a 
            dividend for the period from June 17, 1998 through June 30, 1998. 
            All dividends/distributions will be payable on September 4, 1998.

            On July 1, 1998, the Company acquired the Westside Pavilion in 
            Los Angeles, California for $170,500.  The purchase price was 
            funded from the Company's line of credit and a new ten year 
            $100,000 mortgage placed on the property at closing at an 
            effective fixed interest rate of 6.65%.

            The Company acquired the remaining 60% of the Village at Corte 
            Madera in Corte Madera, California, on July 24, 1998 and also

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF
OPERATIONS (CONTINUED)

Many of the variations in the results of operations, discussed below, 
occurred due to the addition of these properties to the portfolio during 1998 
and 1997. Many factors, such as the availability and cost of capital, overall 
debt to market capitalization level, interest rates and availability of 
potential acquisition targets that meet the Company's criteria, impact the 
Company's ability to acquire additional properties.  Accordingly, management 
is uncertain as to whether during the balance of 1998, and in future years, 
there will be similar acquisitions and corresponding increases in revenues, 
equity in income of unconsolidated joint ventures and the Management 
Companies, net income and funds from operations that occurred as a result of 
the addition of the 1998 and 1997 Acquisition Centers. All other centers are 
referred to herein as the "Same Centers".

The bankruptcy and/or closure of retail stores, particularly anchors, may 
reduce customer traffic and cash flow generated by a center.  During 1997, 
Montgomery Ward filed bankruptcy.  The Company has 11 Montgomery Ward stores 
in its portfolio.  Montgomery Ward has not yet disclosed whether they will 
cease operating any of their stores in the Company's centers.  The long-term 
closure of these or other stores could adversely affect the Company's 
performance.

In addition, the Company's success in the highly competitive real estate 
shopping center business depends upon many other factors, including general 
economic conditions, the ability of tenants to make rent payments, increases 
or decreases in operating expenses, occupancy levels, changes in 
demographics, competition from other centers and forms of retailing and the 
ability to renew leases or re-let space upon the expiration or termination of 
leases.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS - SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 1998 AND 1997


REVENUES

Minimum and percentage rents together increased by $14.2 million to $83.9 
million for the six months ended June 30, 1998 compared to $69.7 million in 
the six months ended June 30, 1997.  The 1997 Acquisition Centers contributed 
$12.7 million of the increase with approximately $1.5 million generated from 
the Same Centers.  The impact of  EITF 98-9, "Accounting for Contingent Rents 
in Interim Financial Periods," which was implemented on April 1, 1998, 
reduced percentage rents by $1.8 million for the six months ending June 30, 
1998.

Tenant recoveries for the six months ended June 30, 1998 increased by $5.9 
million compared to the same period in 1997.  This was primarily due to the 
addition of the 1997 Acquisition Centers. In addition, Same Centers 
recoveries increased by $1.1 million due to increased recoverable expenses 
during the quarter.

EXPENSES

Shopping center expenses increased by $6.1 million for the six months ended 
June 30, 1998 compared to the same period in 1997.  Approximately $4.8 
million of the increase was due to the addition of the 1997 Acquisition 
Centers.  The Same Centers had a net increase of $1.3 million, primarily from 
an increase in maintenance, repair, security and utility expenses.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF
OPERATIONS (CONTINUED)

General and administrative expenses increased to $2.2 million for the six 
months ended June 30, 1998 compared to $1.2 million in the same period in 
1997, primarily due to the accounting change required by EITF 97-11, 
"Accounting for Internal Costs Relating to Real Estate Property 
Acquisitions", which requires the expensing of internal acquisition costs.  
Previously, in accordance with GAAP, certain internal acquisition costs were 
capitalized.  The increase is also attributable to increased executive and 
director compensation expense.

Interest expense increased to $41.2 million at June 30, 1998 compared to 
$31.2 million at June 30, 1997.  This increase of $10.0 million is partially 
attributable to the acquisition activity in 1997 and 1998, which was 
partially funded with secured debt and borrowings under the Company's line of 
credit.  In addition, in June and July of 1997, the Company issued $161.4 
million of convertible debentures which resulted in $5.7 million of the 
variance.

Depreciation and amortization increased to $23.6 million at June 30, 1998 
compared to $19.7 million at June 30, 1997.  This increase of $3.9 million 
relates primarily to the 1997 Acquisition Centers.

INCOME FROM UNCONSOLIDATED JOINT VENTURES AND THE MANAGEMENT COMPANIES

The income from unconsolidated joint ventures and the Management Companies 
increased to $5.6 million compared to $1.1 million for the period ended June 
30, 1997.  This increase was primarily due to the Joint Venture Acquisitions. 

NET INCOME

Net income for the six months ended June 30, 1998 increased to $14.2 million 
compared to $12.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 1997.  This 
increase was due to the factors discussed above. 

CASH FLOWS FROM OPERATING ACTIVITIES

As a result of the factors discussed above, cash flow from operations 
increased to $51.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 1998 from $37.9 
million during the same period in 1997.  This increase is primarily due to 
increased net operating income from the 1997 Acquisition Centers.

CASH FLOWS FROM INVESTING ACTIVITIES

Net cash flow used in investing activities increased to $393.9 million for 
the six months ended June 30, 1998 from $69.2 million for the same period in 
1997. This increase is primarily due to more cash being used for acquisitions 
in the six months ended June 30, 1998 compared to the same period in 1997.

CASH FLOWS FROM FINANCING ACTIVITIES

Cash flow from financing activities increased to $413.8 million for the six 
months ended June 30, 1998 from $24.1 million for the same period in 1997 as 
a result of net proceeds received from issuing stock and debt in 1998.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS - THREE MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 1998 AND 1997

REVENUES

Minimum and percentage rents together increased by $5.8 million to $41.3 
million for the three months ended June 30, 1998 compared to $35.5 million in 
the three months ended June 30, 1997.  The 1997 Acquisition Centers 
contributed $5.4 million of the increase with approximately $0.5 million 
generated from the Same Centers.  The impact of  EITF 98-9, which was 
implemented April 1, 1998, reduced percentage rents by $1.8 million for the 
three months ended June 30, 1998.

Tenant recoveries for the second quarter of 1998 increased by $3.2 million 
compared to the second quarter of 1997.  The addition of the 1997 Acquisition 
Centers represented 2.2 million of this increase with the remaining increase 
of $1.0 million attributable to the Same Centers.

EXPENSES

Shopping center expenses increased by $3.1 million for the three months ended 
June 30, 1998 compared to the same period in 1997.  Approximately $2.3 
million of the increase was due to the addition of the 1997 Acquisition 
Centers.  The Same Centers had a net increase of $0.8 million, primarily from 
an increase in maintenance, repair, security and utility expenses.

General and administrative expenses increased to $1.1 million for the three 
months ended June 30, 1998 compared to $0.4 million in the same period in 
1997, primarily due to the accounting change required by EITF 97-11, 
"Accounting for Internal Costs Relating to Real Estate Property 
Acquisitions", which requires the expensing of internal acquisition costs 
that had been previously capitalized.  The increase is also attributable to 
increased executive and director compensation expense.

Interest expense increased to $20.6 million for the three months ended June 
30, 1998 compared to the $16.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 
1997. This increase of $4.2 million is partially attributable to the 
acquisition activity in 1997 and 1998, which was partially funded with 
secured debt and borrowings under the Company's line of credit.  In addition, 
in June and July of 1997, the Company issued $161.4 million of convertible 
debentures which resulted in $2.8 million of the variance.

Depreciation and amortization increased to $11.9 million for the three months 
ended June 30, 1998 compared to $10.2 million for the same period in 1997.  
This increase of $1.7 million relates primarily to the 1997 Acquisition 
Centers.

INCOME FROM UNCONSOLIDATED JOINT VENTURES AND THE MANAGEMENT COMPANIES

The income from unconsolidated joint ventures and the Management Companies 
increased to $4.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 1998 compared 
to $0.7 million for the same period in 1997.  This increase was primarily due 
to the Joint Venture Acquisitions. 

NET INCOME

Net income for the three months ended June 30, 1998 increased to $7.4 million 
compared to $6.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 1997.  This 
increase was due to the factors discussed above.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF
OPERATIONS (CONTINUED)


LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

The Company intends to meet its short term liquidity needs through cash 
generated from operations and working capital reserves.  The Company 
anticipates that revenues will continue to provide necessary funds for its 
operating expenses and debt service requirements, and to pay dividends to 
stockholders in accordance with REIT requirements.  The Company anticipates 
that cash generated from operations, together with cash on hand, will be 
adequate to fund capital expenditures which will not be reimbursed by 
tenants, other than non-recurring capital expenditures.  Capital for major 
expenditures or redevelopments has been, and is expected to continue to be, 
obtained from equity or debt financings.

The Company believes that it will have access to the capital necessary to 
expand its business in accordance with its strategies for growth and 
maximizing Funds from Operations.  The Company presently intends to obtain 
additional capital necessary to expand its business through a combination of 
additional equity offerings and debt financings.

The Company's total outstanding loan indebtedness at June 30, 1998 was 
$1,487.2 billion (including its pro rata share of joint venture debt).  This 
equated to a debt to Total Market Capitalization (defined as total debt of 
the Company, including its pro rata share of joint venture debt, plus 
aggregate market value of outstanding shares of common stock, assuming full 
conversion of all outstanding OP Units and preferred stock into common stock) 
rate of 48.6% at June 30, 1998.  The Company's debt consists primarily of 
fixed rate, conventional mortgages payable secured by individual properties.  
In connection with $65.1 million of the Company's floating rate indebtedness, 
the Company has entered into interest rate protection agreements that limit 
the Company's exposure to increases in interest rates.  

The Company has filed a shelf registration statement, effective December 8, 
1997, to sell securities.  The shelf registration was for a total of $500 
million of common stock, common stock warrants or common stock rights.  On 
February 18, 1998, the Company issued 1,052,650 shares and on February 23, 
1998, an additional 1,826,484 shares were issued.  On April 24, 1998, the 
Company issued 808,989 shares and an additional 967,256 and 1,864,802 shares 
were issued on April 29, 1998 and May 29, 1998, respectively.  The total 
gross proceeds of these transactions were approximately $178.8 million, 
leaving approximately $321.2 million available under the shelf registration 
statement.

The Company has an unsecured line of credit up to $150 million.  There was 
$55 million outstanding at December 31, 1997 and $93 million outstanding on 
June 30, 1998.

At June 30, 1998 and December 31, 1997, the Company had cash and cash 
equivalents of $96.4 million and $25.2 million, respectively.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF
OPERATIONS (CONTINUED)


YEAR 2000 COMPLIANCE

The Company has been advised by its independent software vendor that it has 
completed its evaluation, testing and modification of the property management 
and accounting software used by the Company and the necessary changes have 
been completed to achieve year 2000 compliance.  The Company is conducting 
its own evaluation and testing regarding this software and does not believe 
there will be any significant accounting or property management impact as a 
result of the year 2000. In addition, the Company is in the process of 
evaluating and/or testing computer and other operational systems located at 
its properties for any potential year 2000 compliance issues.

FUNDS FROM OPERATIONS

The Company believes that the most significant measure of its performance is 
Funds from Operations ("FFO").  FFO is defined by the National Association of 
Real Estate Investment Trusts ("NAREIT") to be: Net income (computed in 
accordance with GAAP), excluding gains or losses from debt restructuring and 
sales or write down of assets, plus depreciation and amortization (excluding 
depreciation on personal property and amortization of loan and financial 
instrument costs) and after adjustments for unconsolidated entities. 
Adjustments for unconsolidated entities will be calculated on the same basis. 
FFO does not represent cash flow from operations, as defined by generally 
accepted accounting principles, and is not necessarily indicative of cash 
available to fund all cash flow needs.  The following reconciles net income 
- --available to common stockholders to FFO:

1)   Calculated based upon basic net income as adjusted to reach basic FFO.
     Weighted average number of shares includes the weighted average shares of
     common stock outstanding for 1998 and 1997 assuming the conversion of 
     all outstanding OP units.

2)   The computation of FFO -- diluted and diluted average number of shares
     outstanding includes the effect of outstanding common stock options and
     restricted stock using the treasury method.  Convertible debentures are
     anti-dilutive and are not included.  On February 25, 1998, the Company sold
     $100 million of cumulative convertible preferred stock.  On June 17, 1998,
     the Company sold an additional $150 million of cumulative convertible
     preferred stock.  The preferred stock can be converted on a 1 for 1 basis
     for common stock.  These preferred shares are not assumed converted for
     purposes of net income per share as they would be anti-dilutive to that
     calculation.  The preferred shares are assumed converted for purposes of
     FFO per share as they are dilutive to that calculation.
     
Included in minimum rents were rents attributable to the accounting practice 
of straight-lining of rents.  The amount of straight-lining of rents that 
impacted minimum rents was $1.8 million and $1.7 million for the six months 
ended June 30, 1998 and 1997, respectively; and $.9 million and $1.0 million 
for the three months ended June 30, 1998 and 1997, respectively.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF
OPERATIONS (CONTINUED)

INFLATION

In the last three years, inflation has not had a significant impact on the 
Company because of a relatively low inflation rate. Most of the leases at the 
Centers have rent adjustments periodically through the lease term.  These 
rent increases are either in fixed increments or based on increases in the 
Consumer Price Index.  In addition, many of the leases are for terms of less 
than ten years, which enables the Company to replace existing leases with new 
leases at higher base rents if the rents of the existing leases are below the 
then existing market rate.  Additionally, most of the leases require the 
tenants to pay their pro rata share of operating expenses.  This reduces the 
Company's exposure to increases in costs and operating expenses resulting 
from inflation.

NEW ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

In March, 1998, the FASB, through its Emerging Issues Task Force ("EITF"), 
concluded based on EITF 97-11, "Accounting for Internal Costs Relating to 
Real Estate Property Acquisitions," that all internal costs to source, 
analyze and close acquisitions should be expensed as incurred.  The Company 
has historically capitalized these costs, in accordance with GAAP.  The 
Company has adopted the FASB's interpretation effective March 19, 1998, and 
expects the impact to be an approximate $.06 per share reduction of net 
income and FFO -- diluted per share in 1998.

In May, 1998, the FASB, through the EITF, modified the timing on recognition 
of revenue for percentage rent received from tenants in EITF 98-9, 
"Accounting for Contingent Rents in Interim Financial Periods."  The Company 
applied this accounting change as of April 1, 1998.  Although the Company 
believes this accounting change will have no material impact on the annual 
percentage rent recognized, the accounting change had the effect of deferring 
$1.8 million of percentage rent that would have been recognized using the 
previous GAAP accounting method for percentage rent recognition.  As a result 
of this accounting change, the Company expects a portion of percentage rent 
that previously would be recognized in the second and third quarters to be 
recognized in the fourth quarter.

OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1    Legal Proceedings

          During the ordinary course of business, the Company, from time to 
          time, is threatened with, or becomes a party to, legal actions and 
          other proceedings. Management is of the opinion that the outcome of 
          currently known actions and proceedings to which it is a party 
          will not, singly or in the aggregate, have a material adverse effect 
          on the Company.

Item 2    Changes in Securities and Use of Proceeds

          On June 17, 1998, the Company sold 5,487,471 shares of its Series B 
          Cumulative Convertible Redeemable Preferred Stock, par value $.01 
          per share (the "Series B Preferred Stock"), at a price of $27.335 
          per share, for total gross proceeds of approximately $150 million, 
          in a private placement to The Ontario Teachers' Pension Plan Board 
          ("Ontario Teachers"), an accredited investor, pursuant to Section 
          4(2) of the Securities Act. In lieu of a placement fee, the total 
          purchase price was reduced by approximately $1.5 million, for net 
          proceeds to the Company of $148.5 million. The Series B Preferred 
          Stock can be converted into shares of Common Stock on a one-for-one 
          basis subject to certain limitations. The proceeds from the sale of 
          the Series B Preferred Stock were used to acquire South Plains Mall 
          and Westside Pavilion and for general corporate purposes. 
          Additional information regarding the Series B Preferred Stock, 
          including the Articles of Amendment and Restatement and 
          Registration Rights Agreement with respect to the Series B 
          Preferred Stock, was filed with the Commission on Form 8-K dated 
          July 14, 1998 (event date June 17, 1998).

          On July 24, 1998, as partial consideration for the acquisition of

                    3.2  NOTICE AND REGISTRATION.  If the Company proposes to 
register any shares of Common Stock or other securities issued by it having 
terms substantially similar to Eligible Securities ("Other Securities") for 
public sale under the Securities Act (whether proposed to be offered for sale 
by the Company or by any other Person) on a form and in a manner which would 
permit registration of Eligible Securities for sale to the public under the 
Securities Act, it will give prompt written notice to each Investor of its 
intention to do so, and upon the written request of any of the Investors 
delivered to the Company within fifteen (15) Business Days after the giving 
of any such notice (which request shall specify the number of Eligible 
Securities intended to be disposed of by such Investor and the intended 
method of disposition thereof) the Company will use all reasonable efforts to 
effect, in connection with the registration of the Other Securities, the 
registration under the Securities Act of all Eligible Securities which the 
Company has been so requested to register by the Investor or Investors, to 
the extent required to permit the disposition (in accordance with the 
intended method or methods thereof as aforesaid) of Eligible Securities so to 
be registered provided that:

                    (a)  if, at any time after giving such written notice of its
                    intention to register any Other Securities and prior to the
                    effective date of the registration statement filed in
                    connection with such registration, the Company shall
                    determine for any reason not to register the Other
                    Securities, the Company may, at its election, give


                                          3
<PAGE>

                    written notice of such determination to the Investor or
                    Investors seeking registration hereunder (hereafter referred
                    to as the "SELLING INVESTORS") and thereupon the Company 
                    shall be relieved of its obligation to register such
                    Eligible Securities in connection with the registration of
                    such Other Securities (but not from its obligation to
                    pay Registration Expenses to the extent incurred in
                    connection therewith as provided in Section 3.2);

                    (b)  The Company will not be required to effect any
                    registration pursuant to this Article 3 if the Company shall
                    have been advised in writing (with a copy to Investor) by a
                    nationally recognized independent investment banking firm
                    selected by the Company to act as lead underwriter in
                    connection with the public offering of securities by the
                    Company, that in such firm's opinion, a registration of the
                    Eligible Securities which the Company has been requested to
                    register by Investor at that time would materially and
                    adversely affect the Company's own scheduled offering; and

                    (c)  The Company shall not be required to effect any
                    registration of Eligible Securities under this Article 3
                    incidental to the registration of any of its securities in
                    connection with mergers, acquisitions, exchange offers,
                    subscription offers, dividend reinvestment plans or stock
                    options or other employee benefit plans.

                    3.3  REGISTRATION EXPENSES.  The Company (as between the 
Company and the Selling Investors) shall be responsible for the payment of 
all Registration Expenses in connection with any registration pursuant to 
this Article 3.

                    3.4  LOCK-UP AGREEMENT.  The Investor agrees, that, prior 
to that date which is one year following the Closing Date, it will not 
directly or indirectly, offer, sell, contract to sell, grant any option to 
purchase, make any short sale, transfer, pledge, cause a registration of, or 
otherwise dispose of or make a distribution of any of the shares of Common 
Stock acquired by the redemption of all or any portion of its OP Units, 
without the prior written consent of the Company.

                                      ARTICLE IV

                               REGISTRATION PROCEDURES

                    4.1  REGISTRATION AND QUALIFICATION.  If and whenever the 
Company is required to use all reasonable efforts to effect the registration 
of any Eligible Securities under the Securities Act as provided in Article 3, 
the Company will as promptly as is practicable:

                    (a)  prepare, file and use all reasonable efforts to cause
                    to become effective a registration statement under the
                    Securities Act regarding the Eligible Securities to be
                    offered;

                    (b)  prepare and file with the SEC such amendments and
                    supplements to such registration statement and the
                    prospectus used in connection therewith as may be necessary
                    to keep such registration statement effective and to comply
                    with the


                                          4
<PAGE>

        provisions of the Securities Act with respect to the
        disposition of all Eligible Securities until the earlier of
        such time as all of such Eligible Securities have been
        disposed of in accordance with the intended methods of
        disposition by the Selling Investors set forth in
        such registration statement or the expiration of twelve (12)
        months after such registration statement becomes effective;

        (c)  furnish to each Selling Investor and to any underwriter
        of such Eligible Securities such number of conformed copies
        of such registration statement and of each such amendment and supplement
        thereto (in each case including all exhibits), such number of copies
        of the prospectus included in such registration statement (including
        each preliminary prospectus and any summary prospectus), in conformity
        with the requirements of the Securities Act, such documents
        incorporated by reference in such registration statement or
        prospectus, and such other documents as such Selling Investor or such
        underwriter may reasonably request;

        (d)  use all reasonable efforts to register or qualify all Eligible
        Securities covered by such registration statement under such other
        securities or blue sky laws of such jurisdictions as the Selling
        Investors or any underwriter of such Eligible Securities shall
        reasonably request, and do any and all other acts and things which may
        be reasonably requested by the Selling Investors or any underwriter to
        consummate the disposition in such jurisdictions of the Eligible
        Securities covered by such registration statement, except the Company
        shall not for any such purpose be required to qualify generally to do
        business as a foreign corporation in any jurisdiction wherein it is
        not so qualified, or to subject itself to taxation in any jurisdiction
        where it is not then subject to taxation, or to consent to general
        service of process in any jurisdiction where it is not then subject to
        service of process;

        (e)  use all reasonable efforts to list the Eligible Securities on
        each national securities exchange on which the Common Stock is then
        listed, if the listing of such securities is then permitted under the
        rules of such exchange; and 

        (f)  immediately notify the Selling Investors at any time when a
        prospectus relating to a registration pursuant to Article 3 hereof is
        required to be delivered under the Securities Act of the happening of
        any event as a result of which the prospectus included in such
        registration statement, as then in effect, includes an untrue
        statement of material fact or omits to state any material fact
        required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements
        therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made,
        not misleading, and at the request of any Selling Investor prepare and
        furnish to such Investor as many copies of a supplement to or an
        amendment of such prospectus as the Selling Investor may request so
        that, as thereafter delivered to the purchasers of such Eligible
        Securities, such prospectus shall not include an untrue statement of a
        material fact or omit to state a material fact required to be stated
        therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the
        circumstances under which they were made, not misleading.

The Company may require the Investors to furnish the Company such information 
regarding the Investors and the distribution of such securities as the 
Company may from time to time reasonably request in writing and as shall be 
required by law or by the SEC in connection with any registration.  The 
Company may also impose such restrictions and limitations on the distribution 
of such Eligible Securities as the Company reasonably believes are necessary 
or advisable to comply with applicable law or to effect an orderly 
distribution, including those restrictions set forth in Section 4.3 hereof.

                    4.2  UNDERWRITING.  (a) In the event that any 
registration pursuant to Article 3 hereof shall involve, in whole or in part, 
an underwritten offering, the Company may require Eligible Securities 
requested to be registered pursuant to Article 3 to be included in such 
underwriting on the same terms and conditions as shall be applicable to the 
Other Securities being sold through underwriters under such registration.

                    (b)  If requested by the underwriters for any 
underwritten offering of Eligible Securities pursuant to a registration 
requested hereunder, the Company will enter into and perform its obligations 
under an underwriting agreement with such underwriters for such offering, 
such agreement to contain such representations and warranties by the Company 
and such other terms and provisions as are customarily contained in 
underwriting agreements with respect to secondary distributions, including, 
without limitation, indemnities and contribution to the effect and to the 
extent provided in Article 6 hereof.  Each Selling Investor shall be a party 
to any such underwriting agreement and the representations and warranties by, 
and the other agreements on the part of, the Company to and for the benefit 
of such underwriters shall also be made to and for the benefit of each such 
Selling Investor.  Such agreement shall also contain such representations and 
warranties by each such Selling Investor and such other terms and provisions 
as are customarily contained in underwriting agreements with respect to 
secondary distributions, including, without limitation, indemnities and 
contribution to the effect and to the extent provided in Article 6.

                    4.3  BLACKOUT PERIODS.  At any time when a registration 
statement effected pursuant to Article 3 relating to Eligible Securities is 
effective, upon written notice from the Company to an Investor that the 
Company has determined in good faith, with the advice of counsel, that such 
Investor's sale of Eligible Securities pursuant to the registration statement 
would require disclosure of non-public material information the disclosure of 
which would have a material adverse effect on the Company or would otherwise 
adversely effect a material financing, acquisition, disposition, merger or 
other comparable transaction (a "Blackout"), such Investor shall suspend 
sales of Eligible Securities pursuant to such registration statement until 
the earlier of:

                         (a)  the date upon which such material information 
is disclosed to the public or ceases to be material, or

                         (b)  such time as the Company notifies such Investor 
that sales pursuant to such registration statement may be resumed.

                    4.4  QUALIFICATION FOR RULE 144 SALES.  The Company will 
take all actions reasonably necessary to comply with the filing requirements 
described in Rule 144(c)(1) so as to


                                          6
<PAGE>

enable the Investors to sell Eligible Securities without registration under 
the Securities Act and, upon the written request of any Investor, the Company 
will deliver to such Investor a written statement as to whether it has 
complied with such filing requirements.

                                      ARTICLE V

                        PREPARATION; REASONABLE INVESTIGATION

                    5.1  PREPARATION; REASONABLE INVESTIGATION.  In 
connection with the preparation and filing of each registration statement 
registering Eligible Securities under the Securities Act, the Company will 
give each Selling Investor and the underwriters, if any, and their respective 
counsel and accountants, drafts of such registration statement for their 
review and comment prior to filing and such reasonable and customary access 
to its books and records and such opportunities to discuss the business of 
the Company with its officers and the independent public accountants who have 
certified its financial statements as shall be necessary, in the opinion of 
the Selling Investors and such underwriters or their respective counsel, to 
conduct a reasonable investigation within the meaning of the Securities Act.

                                      ARTICLE VI

                           INDEMNIFICATION AND CONTRIBUTION

                    6.1  INDEMNIFICATION AND CONTRIBUTION.  (a)  In the event 
of any registration of Eligible Securities hereunder, the Company will enter 
into customary indemnification arrangements to indemnify and hold harmless 
each Selling Investor, and each Person who participates as an underwriter in 
the offering or sale of such securities, and each Person, if any, who 
controls such underwriter within the meaning of the Securities Act against 
any losses, claims, damages, liabilities and expenses, joint or several, to 
which such Person may be subject under the Securities Act or otherwise 
insofar as such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses (or actions 
or proceedings in respect thereof) arise out of or are based upon (i) any 
untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of any material fact contained 
in any registration statement under which such securities were registered 
under the Securities Act, any preliminary prospectus or final prospectus 
included therein, or any amendment or supplement thereto, or any document 
incorporated by reference therein, or (ii) any omission or alleged omission 
to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary 
to make the statements therein not misleading, and the Company will promptly 
reimburse each such Person for any legal or any other expenses reasonably 
incurred by such Person in connection with investigating or defending any 
such loss, claim, damage, liability, action or proceeding; PROVIDED that the 
Company shall not be liable in any such case to the extent that any such 
loss, claim, damage, liability (or action or proceeding in respect thereof) 
or expense arises out of or is based upon an untrue statement or alleged 
untrue statement or omission or alleged omission made in such registration 
statement, any such preliminary prospectus or final prospectus, amendment or 
supplement in reliance upon and in conformity with written information 
furnished to the Company by such Selling Investor expressly for use in the 
registration statement.  Such indemnity shall remain in full force and effect 
regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of such Selling Investor 
or any such


                                          7
<PAGE>

Person and shall survive the transfer of such securities by such Selling 
Investor.  The Company also shall agree to provide provision for contribution 
as shall be reasonably requested by the Selling Investors or any underwriters 
in circumstances where such indemnity is held unenforceable.

                    (b)  Each Selling Investor, by virtue of exercising its 
registration rights hereunder, agrees and undertakes to enter into customary 
indemnification arrangements to indemnify and hold harmless (in the same 
manner and to the same extent as set forth in clause (a) of this Article 6) 
the Company, each director of the Company, each officer of the Company who 
shall sign such registration statement, each Person who participates as an 
underwriter in the offering or sale of such securities and each Person, if 
any, who controls the Company or any such underwriter within the meaning of 
the Securities Act, with respect to any statement in or omission from such 
registration statement, any preliminary prospectus or final prospectus 
included therein, or any amendment or supplement thereto, but only to the 
extent that such statement or omission was made in reliance upon and in 
conformity with written information furnished by such Investor to the Company 
expressly for use in the registration statement.  Such indemnity shall remain 
in full force and effect regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf 
of the Company or any such director, officer or controlling Person and shall 
survive the transfer of the registered securities by the Investor and the 
expiration of this Agreement.  Each Investor also shall agree to provide 
provision for contribution as shall be reasonably requested by the Company or 
any underwriters in circumstances where such indemnity is held unenforceable.

                    (c)  Indemnification and contribution similar to that 
specified in the preceding subdivisions of this Article 6 (with appropriate 
modifications) shall be given by the Company and each Selling Investor with 
respect to any required registration or other qualification of Eligible 
Securities under any federal or state law or regulation of governmental 
authority other than the Securities Act.

                                     ARTICLE VII

                           TRANSFER OF REGISTRATION RIGHTS

                    7.1  TRANSFER OF REGISTRATION RIGHTS.  The Investors may 
NOT transfer the registration rights granted hereunder to any other Person. 

                                     ARTICLE VIII

                                    MISCELLANEOUS

of this Agreement shall be invalid or unenforceable, the invalidity or 
unenforceability of such clause, provision or section


                                          8

by all of the parties hereto.
